So there are some that prefer front engine cars.

A guy on facebook has had his C8 for 2 weeks and is going to sell it and get his C6 GS back.
He doesn't mention whether it's a stick car or not and he claims his C6 was "as fast" as his C8. LOL.
I can understand his preference, but why anyone would go to all that trouble is beyond me.

Ask him.

Ask him.

It was rhetorical. I think he's a fool.

Sounds like money is no object.

Sounds like he is trolling for views to up his advertising revenue. Does Facebook pay out like YouTube? I have never been on Facebook so don’t know that much about it.

Sounds like he has an emotional connection to a C6 or a front engine sports car. For me, if GM shits the bed and screws up C9, I would be happy with C8 indefinitely.

Ya, for me a mid engine sports car has been a lifelong dream for me. I was very happy with my Camaro until I saw the camoed C8! When my wife said I could have one I was elated! You should have seen my happy dance!

Knowing you, it was likely a 'square' dance....

At least you don’t have to listen to hours of Rick Conti drivel to be able to see it .

no. I doubt he's that dumb. lol

If the C8 was orange with "01" on the doors, rednecks would have been lined up to bid on it, after seeing his vid.

The blue C8 was a SS717 special that was jumped and also a few "other" off road things (search his videos) so not sure the guy posting the slow mo part of the jump actually did the stunt. He could've been the person that "won" the car from SS717 (he gave away tons of cars in draws when you order his merch).

Yes, there are some that prefer the FE cars I'm one of them. Not a huge fan of a C8 but I do have some interest in ME Z06 and ZR1 (if that's what it will be when announced)..............don't care at all about the eray or any EV/hybrid of anything.

Does it really matter where the engine is? Are you not looking for perfect balance? The C5 had near equal 50/50 balance.

Agree with @Afterimage I just do not get the interest/excitement in the E Ray. Why you would want one is simply beyond me.

 

[Murray20c8]

In a front engine car you want as close to 50/50 as possible. In a mid engine car you want the weight over the rear wheels so 40/60 is prefered.

 

[MKC8]

Isn't the operative word "prefer"? No right or wrong?
It's subjective, you prefer yours, I prefer mine, and so on.

 

[Black 03 Z06]

Do you have to weigh the "big" people and place them accordingly in the proper seats?

I'll bow to the designers of the C8 and say it's desired.

Short answer, "does my Corvette make my ass look fat?".
